19 Oct Fall Mowing Update
We will continue to visit lawns into the fall until lawns go dormant and leaves stop falling. The crews will be coming around with a door sheet informing you if it is a weekly or biweekly visit. They will also have information on fall cleanups, including what services they performed and recommendations for your property.
Mowing Information
- A mowing height of 3 to 3.5”, and not removing more than one-third of the leaf blade while mowing, is important for cool-season turfgrasses to increase stress tolerance and compete with weeds. There is no need to lower the mowing height during fall, however, if the mowing height is lowered do so gradually by mowing often enough to follow the one-third rule while lowering the height one-half inch at a time.
